Give Your Attic The
Refresh It Needs
Removal
We remove all old attic insulation, including blown-in and batt insulation, to ensure a clean and refreshed space.
Inspection
We assess your attic for signs of air leaks, moisture, leaking ducts, damaged sheetrock, and pest activity. By inspecting every corner, we can detect hidden damage, mold growth, or ventilation issues that may be affecting your home’s comfort and air quality
Air Seal
Our air sealing process targets gaps, cracks, and openings where air escapes, preventing heat loss and reducing the strain on your HVAC system.
Removing old insulation is a crucial step in maintaining a safe, energy-efficient home. Over time, insulation can deteriorate, becoming ineffective and even hazardous. Many older homes contain insulation made from materials that may be toxic, such as asbestos or formaldehyde. These materials can pose health risks, especially if they degrade and release harmful particles into the air.
Beyond health concerns, old insulation can also harbor mold, dust, rodent droppings, and other contaminants that reduce indoor air quality. By removing outdated or damaged insulation, we eliminate these risks and create a clean slate for a properly insulated attic.
Additionally, removing old insulation allows us to assess the entire attic space. This process helps identify hidden issues like air leaks, moisture problems, and structural damage that might otherwise go unnoticed. By starting fresh with high-quality insulation, we ensure that your attic is sealed, energy-efficient, and safe for years to come.

Do I need to remove my old insulation before adding blown-in fiberglass?We recommend removing old insulation, especially if it is damaged, moldy, or contaminated by pests.

-
How long will my job take?The time required for insulation installation depends on the size of the space and the type of insulation being installed.

-
How much does insulation cost?The cost of insulation depends on several factors, including the type of insulation (spray foam, blown-in fiberglass, or batt insulation), the size of the area being insulated, and whether existing insulation needs to be removed. On average, attic insulation for a typical home is around a few thousand dollars. While insulation is an upfront investment, it can lead to long-term savings on energy bills by improving your home's thermal efficiency. We offer free quotes to provide you with a detailed estimate tailored to your specific needs.
-
How do I know if my home needs new insulation?There are several signs that indicate it may be time to upgrade or replace your insulation. If you notice uneven temperatures between rooms, frequent drafts, or high energy bills, your insulation may not be performing effectively. Other warning signs include old or deteriorating insulation, excessive dust or allergens, and signs of moisture, mold, or pest infestations in your attic or walls. If your home was built before modern insulation standards were implemented, an upgrade could significantly improve comfort and energy efficiency. Our team can perform an inspection to assess your insulation needs.
-
Are there any rebates or tax credits for insulation?Yes. The federal government offers a tax credit for energy-efficient home improvements, including insulation. Under the Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit, homeowners can claim 30% of insulation costs, up to a maximum of $1,200 per year. This includes materials for spray foam, blown-in fiberglass, batt insulation, and other qualifying insulation types. Check with your tax professional or visit our "Tax Credit" page for additional info.
-
Do I need to remove my old insulation before installing new insulation?In many cases, yes—especially if the existing insulation is damaged, contaminated, or ineffective. If your current insulation is moldy, wet, or shows signs of pest infestation, it should be removed to prevent health hazards and further damage to your home. Additionally, if the insulation has deteriorated over time, it may no longer provide adequate protection. However, in some situations, new insulation can be added on top of existing insulation if it’s still in good condition. Our team will assess your attic and recommend the best approach to maximum performance and longevity for your insulation.
